Compromise Agreements for Employees

If you have been offered a Compromise Agreement to terminate your employment and you wish for advice please telephone us immediately on 01245 345999.

A Compromise Agreement is a legally binding agreement. They are used by employers to achieve a full and final settlement and to ensure that you cannot then go to an Employment Tribunal to complain that the termination of your employment was unfair.

You need to be concerned about the following :-

That sums in relation to loss of employment are paid without the deduction of tax.

That sums that normally attract tax such as sick pay and holiday pay are expressed accordingly.

That the legal fees are payable by the employer.

That you consider whether you have any personal injury claims against the employer and the possible effects of a Compromise Agreement on this.

That you determine how the pensions are going to be effected by the Compromise Agreement.

We normally undertake between approximately 10 – 30 Compromise Agreements per month and therefore we are able to read through these quite quickly and are able to point out to you where there are problems. We act independently of the employer.

We act for one of the largest Unions in the Country and advise them on Compromise Agreements on a regular basis.
